Prophetess Osei-Bagyinah advises youth to avoid bad company
• Prophetess Osei-Bagyinah speaking at the event
The Youth Ministry of the Anointed Family of Jesus International Ministry held its Second Annual Worship Experience last Saturday in Accra with a call on the youth to live worthy lifestyles.
Dubbed “Despise not thy Youth,” the day’s event was geared towards impacting moral values on the youth to take up obligations to become responsible leaders in the future.
Speaking at the event, Founder of the Anointed Family, Prophetess Gifty Osei-Bagyinah, said, “There is the need to avoid the company of bad friends who would not direct you on the right path, but rather advise you negatively to the detriment of your dreams”.
She said life was not a race but a gradual process; “and it is essential to give respect to both young and old irrespective of their status”.
According to her, the Bible speaks highly of respect and there is the need for the youth to honour their parents so they can live long.
She stated that majority of the youth had resorted to gaining wealth using the wrong means which could lead to their early grave.
“Most of the youth are suffering and always are at my doorstep to seek God’s intervention when it gets out of hand. This is because they want to get rich quickly without working hard. A lot are mentally-challenged due to the influence of some friends who lured them into certain acts.”
Prophetess Osei-Bagyinah reminded parents that since “charity begins at home,” they should play their part by ensuring their wards “shun bad company, especially ladies who go after married men”.
She urged young ladies to stay prayerful, be God-fearing and refrain from taking expensive gifts from married men who would later take advantage of them as there was no free lunch anywhere.
